dont let a small stretch fool you in2 thinking that, houston is a pretty deep team this year, but to suggest in the long run and ESPECIALLY the playoffs they will be in better shape without a 25/10 middle clogging, shot blocking/altering monster, well i just cant see how any1 could think that.

well, he slows them down tremendously, takes shots away from their best offensive players, and provides little on D and in rebounding that Deke can't handle.

that's why i think that. they're just as good without him right now... is he really the best in the league?
